I had COVID back in May 2021 and was in quarantine. Things were normal until late August when I started having a cold and got treated with antibiotics. After finishing the antibiotics, I noticed this slight pain on the left side of my chest while breathing deeply, as well as pain in my left hand. It's not sharp anymore, just a constant feeling. My chest X-ray came back normal, but the ECG showed Sinus Tachycardia, and sometimes my heart rate spikes. I'm 26, recently quit smoking, and I'm worried if this could be something like COPD or lung cancer. I can hold my breath for over a minute and can exhale in about 15 seconds, so I'm not breathless. But I'm really anxious, my hands and feet get sweaty, and there's this skin issue on my lower foot which makes me think about hyperthyroidism. Could you help me understand what's going on? I'm seriously worried.

Is there a way to manage mild TR or keep it stable over my lifetime? I'm 30 now and I'm really wondering how I can handle this situation.
For mild tricuspid regurgitation (TR), the focus is usually on managing any underlying conditions that may be causing the TR. In most cases, mild TR does not require specific treatment and can be managed by addressing the underlying cause. It is important to maintain a healthy lifestyle, including regular exercise and a balanced diet. In some cases, medications such as diuretics or ACE inhibitors may be prescribed to help manage symptoms or prevent the condition from worsening. However, the specific treatment plan will depend on the underlying cause of the TR and should be determined by a healthcare professional. Regular follow-up with a healthcare provider is important to monitor the condition and make any necessary adjustments to the treatment plan. If you have any concerns or notice any changes in your symptoms, it is important to consult with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

I'm about 5 feet 3 inches and weigh 70 kg. I've been taking olmetrack 20 mg for the last year, but now my blood pressure is at 13084. I was wondering if I could switch to taking olmighty 20 mg instead, since it's cheaper. Are these two medications different in any way?
Both Olmetrack 20 mg and Olmighty 20 mg contain the same active ingredient, which is olmesartan. They belong to the same class of medications called angiotensin II receptor blockers (ARBs) and are used to treat high blood pressure. You can switch from Olmetrack 20 mg to Olmighty 20 mg as they are equivalent in terms of effectiveness. The recommended dosage for Olmighty 20 mg would be the same as Olmetrack 20 mg, which is usually once daily. It is important to monitor your blood pressure regularly after switching to ensure that it remains controlled. If you experience any unusual symptoms or side effects, please consult your healthcare provider.
